About LED Light Therapy

 

What is LED Light Therapy?

LED (light-emitting diode) focuses the power and energy of the light into your skin. This is widely used by aestheticians & dermatologists to regenerate skin cells to treat acne and slow down aging. It helps to rejuvenate exhausted or dull skin exposed to any environmental elements, by stimulating blood flow in the treatment area.

 

 A breakdown of the colors:


The red light:

  • Best for anti-aging effects, such as reducing wrinkles and fine lines since it treats the outer layer of the skin (epidermis)
  • Stimulates collagen and elastin production
  • Reduces cytokines, thus having an inflammation-reducing effect
  • Boosts circulation
  • Amazing for healing, eczema & psoriasis.
  • Wavelength for handheld: 622 nm - 628 nm


The blue light:

  • Number one tool for acne-prone skin and current, active breakouts
  • Focuses on the sebaceous oil glands and stimulates the production of oxygen radicals that destroy the  P. Acnes bacteria which is the acne-causing bacteria, without damaging the skin. 
  • It also helps decrease scarring from previous breakouts.
  • Wavelength for handheld: 462 nm - 468 nm

The green light:

  • Has a calming effect.
  • Helps to lighten hyper-pigmentation spots.
  • Has anti-inflammatory properties that soothe the surface of the skin. 
  • Used to treat dilated capillaries, sagging skin around the eyes, under eye circles and sun spots.
  • Wavelength for handheld: 522 nm - 528 nm

 

Please note:

 LED lights do NOT contain UV (Ultraviolet radiation), making them completely safe & non-invasive. 

Unfortunately, if you’re using Accutane or retinoids, your skin may have a reaction due to it being more photosensitive. If this applies to you, proceed with caution or plan your regimen around use of those products since we want the very best for all our customers. However, to those with light-sensitivity, LED Treatment in a well-lit room is perfect for you.

 

Each Hand-held device comes with all 3 lights: RED, BLUE & GREEN.
